There is plenty to see at the 2014 Portland Boat Show, but all eyes were on the debut of the new 22′ Duckworth Pacific Silverwing. The impressive new design features a steep 28degree bow for rough water use, incredible amounts of storage, full hard top to maximize comfort, and a rear fishing deck that is the envy of all. The Pacific Silverwing will be on display at the upcoming Seattle Boat Show, January 24 to Feb 2, and selected Duckworth dealers throughout the West.

This is how it all started. Watch this classic Duckworth video created in the early 1980′s by founder Ernie Duckworth and his wife and son. At the time, this was state-of-the-art production, shot on 8mm film and edited together with tape and a razor blade.

The video covers a number of different segments including one early jet boat run all the way to Hells Canyon Dam on the Snake River. The narration is just priceless. Please leave your comments on the YouTube. Enjoy and thanks for watching.

Here are a few images of a recent trip to Astoria, Ore. in the Duckworth Offshore. It’s the perfect chariot for chasing the salmon run and catching limits. Getting cold? Warm up in the luxurious cabin and give the other guys a turn to catch some fish.
